Mindful Education Project

"Opening Minds & Hearts for Learning & Connection"

"The faculty of voluntarily bringing back a wandering attention,
over and over again, is the very root
of judgment, character, and will ...
An education which should improve this faculty
would be the education par excellance."
-- William James

Intention, Structure & Research

Mindful Education Project is an integral program
designed to catalyze, support and sustain
mindful teaching and mindful learning.

Through coursework, classes and community,
educators and students engage in practices
that develop the capacity for focused attention,
relaxed awareness, and kind relationship
with themselves, each other, and the world.

The Mindful Education Project is one of the most comprehensive
mindfulness training programs being offered in the country today.
Its modular approach with multiple modes of "entry" is unique,
and its integration of learning opportunities for
administrators, faculty, students and parents
focuses on bringing mindful awareness to
both individuals and community.

"Can you imagine a world in which this health-promoting,
empathy-enhancing, executive-attention developing,
self-compassion nurturing, affordable and
adaptable mental practice was made
available in everyone's life?"
-- Daniel Siegel, PhD
